“From what I’ve seen and read of so called Christians, maybe they should embrace Hinduism.........”

I don’t think even you believe that. After more than 2,000 years of Hinduism, India was a backward shithole with a diabolical caste system, massive abusive, and stultifying fatalism. After just two centuries of rule under Anglicans, India was close to ready to taking a seat among the modern nations of the world. There still work to be done - because India is still a largely fatalistic toilet. Literally. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/india-is-building-millions-of-toilets-but-toilet-training-could-be-a-bigger-task/2015/06/03/09d1aa9e-095a-11e5-a7ad-b430fc1d3f5c_story.html

Ask yourself why Japan uses a version of Roman law. Ask yourself why China was never a success in modern times until it started to shape itself according to Western ideals. The answer is simple: The West was shaped by Christianity.

Christians invented modern hospitals, modern universities, modern economies, almost all of our modern technology is from them of people shaped by them.

India had been ruled by Muslims for at least 200 years before the Anglicans got there. They invited the British in to get rid of the muslims.

No I don't. But don't forget, so called Christians gave us Robert Tilton, Jimmy Swaggart, Jim Bakker, Oral Roberts, Fred Phelps and the list goes on to include all the Catholic pedophile priests............

So before you cast judgment on Hinduism, look at your own religion and the blatant hypocrisy of its so called leaders............
